Simulate.

Prove resilience with the right scenarios, grounded in your real operations. Simulate disruption end to end and walk away with validated playbooks.

The loop that closes the resilience cycle.

INJ-01INJ-02DECISIONPLAYBOOK

Tabletops test the narrative.

Forge tests the topology.

Forge puts that structure under pressure, modeling disruption as it unfolds over time, grounded in real dependency data and real recovery strategies.

Select a target, and Forge surfaces the applicable threats ranked by likelihood and frequency, then maps the blast radius, injects realistic events, and tracks every decision your team makes along the way.

Pressure-tested from first injectto final playbook.

Auto-Derived Impact Perimeter

Select a target and a threat. Forge derives the simulation perimeter.

Every affected service, application, and downstream process, pulled directly from your operating model.

Catches the dependencies a manual scoping exercise would miss.

Full-Cycle Simulation

Run simulations from first inject to final resolution.

Every action, decision, and escalation timestamped against your actual systems and recovery procedures.

Validates real resilience, not just the tabletop narrative.

Operational Playbook Generation

Produce playbooks that capture how resilience actually runs.

Owners, timing, escalation paths, and recommended actions, each linked to the threats and assets they were tested against.

Not templates. Not theory. Playbooks with evidence behind them.

Lessons Learned & Evidence

Track exercise-over-exercise trends.

RTO/RPO performance and issue resolution rates, exercise over exercise.

Findings feed back into the operating model.

So the next simulation builds on what the last one proved.

THIRD-PARTY VENDOR

CRITICAL SERVICES

FAILOVER TESTS

The operating model shows a single third-party vendor sitting beneath three critical services: settlement, client reporting, and payment processing. The failover strategy on record has never been exercised.

Forge scores the vendor-outage scenario by service criticality, concentration risk, and threat likelihood, and ranks it first among candidates. The next exercise is the one your operating model points to, not one pulled from a template library.

Debrief the exercise.Design the next one.

HELIX — CONVERSATIONALREADY

Talk through what happened and what to do next.

Ask about specific exercise outcomes, compare recovery performance across simulations, and explore which changes would move the needle.

What failed in the last ransomware exercise?

Compare recovery times across the last 3 simulations.

AIRA — AI RESEARCH AGENTREADY

Generate scenarios from reality.

Draft simulation narratives, generate realistic injects, and produce post-exercise reports and playbook updates, all grounded in your actual systems and dependencies.

Generate scenario narratives referencing actual systems and recovery procedures

Draft post-exercise reports with findings linked to affected assets

Create realistic injects based on dependency structure and threat profiles

GROUNDED IN STRUCTURED DATA · TRACEABLE TO SOURCE · GOVERNED BY HUMAN APPROVAL

Stop wondering ifyour plans wouldactually work.

Forge gives your team a way to pressure-test resilience against real risks, and walk out with playbooks that hold up when it matters.
